Multivariate Data Analysis has been through 8 editions since its first publication back in 1979.
Welcome to Multivariate Data Analysis 8e
The field of multivariate data analysis is one that gains more relevance with each passing year. Data is one of the most important resources in our modern world. And as the choices and variables of interest get more varied over time, the importance of analyzing and properly compiling multiple variables concerning large amounts of data has become more nuanced. At the end of the day multivariate data analysis is a type of statistical analysis that involves more than two different yet interdependent variables that result in a single outcome.
A fundamental premise of multivariate analyses are the fact that our complex reality is tied to countless variables that can affect the outcome of almost any situation. From shopping trends to the weather or even behavioral patterns, most of the reality can be understood through the lenses of multivariate data analysis. Thankfully there’s a way to grasp these advanced concepts with ease as multivariate data analysis is not only a field of study, but also the name of our book.
